Molecular Design of Calixarene 5. Syntheses and Cation Selectivities of Novel Schiff's Base p‐tert‐Butylcalix[4]arenes

Five novel Schiff's bases p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arenes have been synthesized in high yields by the reaction of 1,3‐distally disubstituted p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene amine (1) with the corresponding aromatic aldehydes, and their cation binding abilities and selectivities with alkali and heavy metal ions have been evaluated by solvent extraction of aqueous metal picrates to show the highest Ag⁺ extractability for Schiff's base p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene (6) and the best Na⁺/Li⁺ and Ag⁺/Ti⁺ selectivities for Schiff's base p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene (4 and 2) over any other calix[4]arene derivatives, respectively.     

Synthesis and Structure of Novel Double Flexible Spacer Bridged Biscalix[4]arenes

25, 25′, 27, 27′‐Bis(1,3‐dioxypropane)‐bis(5, 11, 17, 23‐tetra‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene‐26,28‐diol) (4) and 25, 25′, 27, 27′‐bis(1, 4‐dioxybutane)‐bis (5, 11, 17, 23‐tetra‐tert‐butylcalix‐[4]arene‐26, 28‐diol) (5) were synthesized by the reaction of p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene (1) with preorganized 25, 27‐bis(3‐bromoproxyl)calix[4]arene‐26, 27‐diol (2) and 25, 27‐bis(3‐bromobutoxyl)calix[4]arene‐26, 27‐diol (3) in the presence of K₂CO₃ and KI. Compounds 4 and 5 were characterized with X‐ray analysis and the selectivity of 4 and 5 toward K⁺ over other alkali metal ions, alkaline metal ions as well as NH₄⁺ were investigated with an ion‐selective electrode.     

Synthesis and photochemical reaction of cyclic oligomers: Synthesis and photopolymerization of novel C‐methylcalix[4]resorcinarene and p‐alkylcalix[n]arene derivatives containing spiro ortho ether groups

New photoreactive calixarene derivatives containing spiro ortho ester groups (calixarenes 3a–3c ) were synthesized by the reaction of 2‐bromomethyl‐1,4,6‐trioxaspiro[4.4]nonane with 2,8,14,20‐tetramethyl‐4,6,10,12,16,18,22,24‐octakis(carboxymethoxy)calix[4]resorcinarene, 5,11,17,23,29,35‐hexamethyl‐37,38,39,40,41,42‐hexakis(carboxymethoxy)calix[6]arene, and 5,11,17,23,29,35,41,47‐octa‐tert‐butyl‐49,50,51,52, 53,54,55,56‐octakis‐(carboxymethoxy)calix[8]arene, which were prepared by the reaction of C‐methylcalix[4]resorcinarene, p‐methylcalix[6]arene, and p‐tert‐butylcalix[8]arene, respectively. The thermal stability of the obtained calixarene derivatives containing spiro ortho ester groups was examined with thermogravimetric analysis, and it was found that these calixarene derivatives had good thermal stability. The photoinitiated cationic polymerization of spiro ortho ester groups in calixarene derivatives 3a–3c was examined with certain photoacid generators in the film state. Interestingly enough, the reaction of calixarene derivatives did not proceed with only photoirradiation; however, the reaction proceeded smoothly when the photoirradiation was followed by heating. Furthermore, calixarene 3a , composed of a C‐methylcalix[4]resorcinarene structure, showed the highest photochemical reactivity in this reaction system. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Bis‐tert‐Alcohol‐Functionalized Crown‐6‐Calix[4]arene: An Organic Promoter for Nucleophilic Fluorination

A bis‐tert‐alcohol‐functionalized crown‐6‐calix[4]arene (BACCA) was designed and prepared as a multifunctional organic promoter for nucleophilic fluorinations with CsF. By formation of a CsF/BACCA complex, BACCA could release a significantly active and selective fluoride source for S_N2 fluorination reactions. The origin of the promoting effects of BACCA was studied by quantum chemical methods. The role of BACCA was revealed to be separation of the metal fluoride to a large distance (>8 Å), thereby producing an essentially “free” F^?. The synergistic actions of the crown‐6‐calix[4]arene subunit (whose O atoms coordinate the counter‐cation Cs⁺) and the terminal tert‐alcohol OH groups (forming controlled hydrogen bonds with F^?) of BACCA led to tremendous efficiency in S_N2 fluorination of base‐sensitive substrates.     

Two related lithium calixarene complexes, [p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene(OMe)(OH)2(OLi)]2·4MeCN and {p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene(OH)2(OLi)[OLi(NCMe)2]}2·8MeCN,determined using synchrotron radiation

The crystal structures of acetonitrile solvates of two related lithium calixarene complexes have been determined by low‐temperature single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction using synchrotron radiation. Bis(μ‐5,11,17,23‐tetra‐tert‐butyl‐26,28‐dihydroxy‐25‐methoxy‐27‐oxidocalix[4]arene)dilithium(I) acetonitrile tetrasolvate, [Li₂(C₄₅H₅₇O₄)₂]·4C₂H₃N or [p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene(OMe)(OH)₂(OLi)]₂·4MeCN, (I), crystallizes with the complex across a centre of symmetry and with four molecules of unbound acetonitrile of crystallization per complex. Tetraacetonitrilebis(μ‐5,11,17,23‐tetra‐tert‐butyl‐26,28‐dihydroxy‐25,27‐dioxidocalix[4]arene)tetralithium(I) acetonitrile octasolvate, [Li₄(C₄₄H₅₄O₄)₂(C₂H₃N)₄]·8C₂H₃N or {p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene(OH)₂(OLi)[OLi(NCMe)₂]}₂·8MeCN, (II), also crystallizes with the complex lying across a centre of symmetry and contains eight molecules of unbound acetonitrile per complex plus four more directly bound to two of the lithium ions, two on each ion. The cores of both complexes are partially supported by O—H...O hydrogen bonds. The methoxy methyl groups in (I) prevent the binding of any more than two Li⁺ ions, while the corresponding two O‐atom sites in (II) bind an extra Li⁺ ion each, making four in total. The calixarene cone adopts an undistorted cone conformation in (I), but an elliptical one in (II).     

Zweifach und dreifach intramolekular verbrückte p‐tert‐Butylcalix[8]aren‐triphosphate – Synthese,Struktur und Stereochemie

Two‐ and Threefold Intramolecular Brigdging p‐tert‐Butylcalix[8]arene Triphosphates – Synthesis, Structure and Stereochemistry [1] The phosphorylation of p‐tert‐butylcalix[8]arene ( 1 ) with phosphorus pentachloride and hydrolysis gives intramolecular bridging tert‐butylcalix[8]arene triphosphates. The reactivity (esterification, dehydratisation, complexation), the structure (nmr and x‐ray), and the stereochemical behaviour of the phosphates will be discussed.     

Oligomeric calix[4]arene‐thiacrown ether for toxic heavy metals

A new oligomeric calix[4]arene‐thiacrown‐4 ( 5 ) was synthesized via a condensation reaction of 5,11,17,23‐tetra‐tert‐butyl‐25,27‐bis‐(4‐aminobenzyloxy)‐calix[4]arene‐thiacrown‐4 ( 4 ) with adipoyl dichloride. In this oligomerization reaction only five/six calix[4]arene‐thiacrown‐4 units were linked in the oligomeric chain. The complexation studies of 5 were made with liquid–liquid‐ extraction and solid–liquid‐sorption procedures. For comparison, the extraction efficiencies of monomers 1 , 3 , and 4 to selected transition metals are reported. The selectivity of monomers 3 and 4 toward Cu²⁺, Hg²⁺, and Pb²⁺ was lost after oligomerization in the two‐phase extraction systems. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Amphiphilic p‐tert‐Butylcalix[4]arene Scaffolds Containing Exposed Carbohydrate Dendrons

The best of both worlds. Amphiphilic hybrid molecules, in which water‐exposed glycodendrons are attached to a hydrophobic p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene scaffold, display strong affinities for both carbohydrate‐binding proteins and polystyrene surfaces (shown schematically). The molecules can form monolayers useful in bioanalytical devices.     

Mechanism of nucleophilic fluorination promoted by bis‐tert‐alcohol‐functionalized crown‐6‐calix[4]arene

Theoretical calculations were performed to elucidate the ability of the recently reported bis‐tert‐alcohol‐functionalized crown‐6‐calix[4]arene (BACCA) molecule to promote nucleophilic fluorination of alkyl mesylates with cesium fluoride reagent. It was found that a similar structure, named BACCAt, can separate the cesium fluoride ion pair in tert‐butanol solution. This separation has a free energy cost, even considering the double hydrogen bonds with the fluoride ion. The solvent has an important effect on the stabilization of this complex, due to interaction with the high dipole moment of the separated ion pair. The observed rate acceleration effect involves a structure with double hydrogen bonds between the BACCAt and the centers of negative charges of the S_N2 transition state. The predicted free energy barrier of 27.3 kcal mol⁻¹ is in excellent agreement with the estimated experimental value of 26.2 kcal mol⁻¹.     

一对含有苯甲醛基修饰的杯芳烃异构体的晶体结构以及它们与铽离子配位的光物理性质

Two calix[4]arene isomers with benzaldehyde moieties, i.e., 5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl-25,27-bis[2-(o-formyl-phenoxy)ethoxy]-26,28-dihydroxycalix[4]arene (3) and 5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl-25,27-bis[2-(p-formylphenoxy)-ethoxy]-26,28-dihydroxycalix[4]arene (4), were synthesized according to a newly designed route in high yields, and their crystal structures have been determined by X-ray crystallographic study. The photophysical behavior on complexation of calix[4]arene derivatives 3 and 4 with terbium(Ⅲ) nitrate was investigated in anhydrous acetonitrile at 25℃ by UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopies. The crystallographic structure of 3 indicated that the eight oxygen atoms formed a preorganized ionophoric cavity due to intramolecular π-π stacking, which could encapsulate lanthanide ions tightly. In sharp contrast, the compound 4 formed a linear array by intermolecular π-π stacking, hence the oxygen atoms of pendant arms could not coordinate with metal ions, giving a poor binding ability to Tb^3 . The absorption spectra of 3 with Tb^3 showed clearly a new broad intense absorption at 385nm. Interestingly, the narrow emission line spectrum has also been observed for compound 3 with Tb^3 , and the results obtained were discussed from the viewpoint of energy transfer mechanism between host structures and the properties of lanthanide ions.     

Aminolysis reaction of calix [ 4 ] arene esters and crystal structures and conformational behaviors of calix[4]arene amides

We first make use of aminolysis of calix[4]arene esters to synthesize calix[4]arene amides. When the two ethyl esters of the calix[4]arene esters are aminolysized, the 1, 3-amide derivative is formed selectively. The crystal structures of the calix-[4]arene with two butyl amide (3b) and four butyl amide moieties (4b) were determined. The intermolecular hydrogen bonds make 4b form two-dimensional net work insolid state. The 1H NMR spectra prove that 3b is of a pinched cone conformation, while 4b and tetraheptylamide-calix[4]arene (6b) take fast interconversion between two C2v isomers in solution and appear an apparent cone conformation at room temperature. As decreasing temperature, the interconversion rate decreases gradually and, finally, the interconversion process is frozen at Tc = -10℃, which makes both conformations of 4b and 6b the pinched cone structures. The hydrogen bond improves the interconversion barrier, and the large different values of the potential barrier between 6b and 4b (or 6b) may     

Synthesis of Flavin–Calix[4]arene Conjugate Derivatives

The synthesis of two new flavin substituted calix[4]arene derivatives, 9 and 10 , is described. The first flavin substituted calix[4]arene derivative 9 was synthesized by the reaction of 3‐methylalloxazine ( 5 ) with 25,27‐bis(3‐bromopropoxy)‐26,28‐dihydroxy‐5,11,17,23‐tetra(tert‐butyl)calix[4]arene ( 4 ) in high yield (92%). The other derivative 10 was prepared from 3‐methylalloxazine‐1‐acetic acid ( 7 ) and 25,27‐bis(3‐cyanopropoxy)calix[4]arene ( 3 ). All new compounds were characterized by a combination of FT‐IR and ¹H‐NMR spectroscopy, and elemental‐analysis techniques.     

Molecular Design of Calixarene,Part 4, Synthesis of Novel Double‐Armed p‐(tert‐Butyl)calix[4]arene‐Derived Amides and Their Lead(II)(Pb2+)‐Selective‐Electrode Properties

A series of novel double‐armed p‐(tert‐butyl)calix[4]arenes, carrying benzoylamido, 4‐nitrobenzoylamido, isonicotinamido, α‐naphthamido, acetamido, propionamido, or butyramido groups (see 2 – 8 , resp.) were synthesized in 80 – 86% yield by the reaction of the lower‐rim 1,3‐bis(aminoethoxy)‐substituted calix[4]arenediol 1 with the corresponding acylating agents. Their structures were established by elemental analysis, mass, IR, UV, and ¹H‐NMR spectroscopy. Ion‐selective electrodes (ISEs) for Pb²⁺, carrying 2 – 8 in a PVC membrane as neutral ionophore, were prepared, and their selectivity coefficients for Pb²⁺ (K) were determined against other heavy‐metal ions, alkali and alkaline earth metal ions, and ammonium ions by means of the separate‐solution method. The results obtained indicated that the electrodes based on the calix[4]arene‐derived amides 2 – 8 as the neutral ionophores were all Pb²⁺ selective and exhibited almost theoretical Nernstian slopes, except for 3 and 4 . Typically, the Pb²⁺‐selective electrode based on 6 – 8 exhibited almost Nernstian slopes for Pb²⁺ over a relatively wide concentration range and had a fast response time as well as a long lifetime, although the silver ion interfered strongly. These ISEs based on 6 – 8 showed a relatively good Pb²⁺ selectivity against most of the interfering cations examined, except for Ag⁺. The effect of the side‐arm functions of calix[4]arene derivatives 2 – 8 on the Nernstian slopes and on the selectivity coefficients for Pb²⁺ obtained with the Pb²⁺ ISEs based on 2 – 8 is discussed.     

Liquid chromatographic behavior of two alanine‐substituted calix[4]arene‐bonded silica gel stationary phases

Two new kinds of alanine‐substituted calix[4]arene stationary phases of 5,11,17,23‐p‐tert‐butyl‐25,27‐bis(l ‐alanine‐methylester‐N‐carbonyl‐methoxy)‐26,28‐dihyroxycalix[4]arene‐bonded silica gel stationary phase (BABS4) and 5, 11, 17, 23‐p‐tert‐butyl‐25,26,27,28‐tetra(l ‐alanine‐methylester‐N‐carbonyl‐methoxy)‐calix[4]arene‐bonded silica gel stationary phase (TABS4) were prepared and characterized in the present study. They were compared with each other and investigated in terms of their chromatographic performance by using polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, disubstituted benzene isomers, and mono‐substituted benzenes as solute probes. The results indicated that both BABS4 and TABS4 exhibited multiple interactions with analytes. In addition, the commonly used Tanaka characterization protocol for the evaluation of commercially available stationary phases was applied to evaluate the properties of these two new functionalized calixarene stationary phases. The Tanaka test results were compared with Zorbax Eclipse XDB C₁₈ and Kromasil phenyl columns, respectively. BABS4 has stronger hydrogen‐bonding capacity and ion‐exchange capacity than TABS4, and features weaker hydrophobicity and hydrophobic selectivity. Both of them behave similarly in stereoselectivity. Both BABS4 and TABS4 are weaker than C₁₈ and phenyl stationary phases in hydrophobicity and hydrophobic selectivity.     

Synthesis and crystal structures of novel calix[4]azacrowns

A series of novel 1,3‐altemate calix[4]arene azacrowns having mono and bis crown ethers on the lower rim of the calix[4]arene framework were synthesized. Solid‐state structures confirmed the three dimensional conformation of compounds 1–3.     

硫酰杯[4]芳烃与铜(II)双核配合物的合成与晶体结构

The X-ray crystallographic structure was reported for a dinuclear copper（Ⅱ） complex with a tetraanionic ligand of p-tert-butylsulfonylcalix[4]arene [Cu2L（CH3OH）6]·4CH3OH （H4L=p-tert-butylsuffonylcalix[4]arene）. The complex belongs to triclinic system, P1^-- space group, with a = 1.2303（3） nm, b = 1.2377（3） nm, c = 1.3110（3） nm, a =66.862（4）°, β= 67.206（4）°, γ=61.711（3）°, Z= 1, V= 1.5659（7） nm^3, Dc= 1.371 g/cm^3, F（000） = 682,μ（Mo Kα） = 0.883 mm^-1, R1 =0.0325, wR2=0.0870. In this complex, the calix[4]arene acts as a bis-tridentate chelating ligand with the 1,2-alternate conformation.     

Synthesis of a calix[4]crown modified with germanium‐containing side chains

A germacalix‐crown, 25,27‐bis[1‐(3‐trimethylgermylpropyl)oxy]calix[4]arene‐crown‐6, 1,3‐alternate ( 1a ), and its carbon analog, 25,27‐bis‐[1‐(4,4‐dimethylpentyl)oxy]calix[4]arene‐crown‐6, 1,3‐alternate ( 1b ), were prepared and their structures were confirmed by elemental analysis and ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. A cation transport test indicated that both compounds exhibited much the same cation transport ability, so that the role of the germanium moiety in capturing and transporting counteranions is not yet clear.

A,C-Bridged Calix[6]arene： Relationship between the Length of Bridge and Conformation

Three new A,C-diamide bridged p-tert-butylcalix[6]arenes were synthesized from p-tert-butylcalix[6]arenes by bridging ClCH2CONH(CH2)nNHCOCH2Cl(n=3,4,6) in acetonitrile using K2CO3 as a base in 17%-25% yields.It was found that the bridged calix[6]arenes with shorter bridges (n=2,3,4 in N′,N′-bischloroacetodiamines) adopt cone conformation, but the last one (n=6) adopts alternate conformation, i.e., accompanying the lengthening of bridge, the conformation of A,C-bridged calix[6]arenes changes from cone to alternate.     

Mono‐ and Binuclear Rhodium and Platinum Complexes of 1, 3, 5‐Trimethyl‐1, 3, 5‐triaza‐2σ3λ3‐phosphorin‐4, 6‐dionyloxy‐substituted Calix[4]arenes

The reaction behaviour of 1, 3, 5‐triaza‐2σ³λ³‐phosphorin‐4, 6‐dionyloxy‐substituted calix[4]arenes towards mono‐ and binuclear rhodium and platinum complexes was investigated. Special attention was directed to structure and dynamic behaviour of the products in solution and in the solid state. Depending on the molar ratio of the reactands, the reaction of the tetrakis(triazaphosphorindionyloxy)‐substituted calix[4]arene ( 4 ) and its tert‐butyl‐derivative ( 1 ) with [(cod)RhCl]₂ yielded the mono‐ and disubstituted binuclear rhodium complexes 2 , 3 , and 5 . In all cases, a C₂‐symmetrical structure was proved in solution, apparently caused by a fast intramolecular exchange process between cone conformation and 1, 3‐alternating conformation. The X‐ray crystal structure determination of 5 confirmed [(calixarene)RhCl]₂‐coordination through two opposite phosphorus atoms with a P ⃜P separation of 345 pm. The complex displays crystallographic inversion symmetry, and the Rh₂Cl₂ core is thus exactly planar. Reaction of 1 and of the bis(triazaphosphorindionyloxy)‐bis(methoxy)‐substituted tert‐butyl‐calix‐[4]arene ( 7 ) with (cod)Rh(acac) in equimolar ratio and subsequent reaction with HBF₄ led to the expected cationic monorhodium complexes 5 and 8 , involving 1, 3‐alternating P‐Rh‐P‐coordination. The cone conformation in solution was proved by NMR spectroscopy and characteristic values of the ¹J(PRh) coupling constants in the ³¹P‐NMR‐spectra. Reaction of equimolar amounts of 4 with (cod)Rh(acac) or (nbd)Rh(acac) led, by substitution of the labile coordinated acetylacetonato and after addition of HBF₄, to the corresponding mononuclear cationic complexes 9 and 10 . Only two of the four phosphorus atoms in 9 and 10 are coordinated to the central metal atom. Displacement of either cycloocta‐1, 5‐diene or norbornadiene was not observed. For both compounds, the cone conformation was proved by NMR spectroscopy. Reaction of 4 with (cod)PtCl₂ led to the PtCl₂‐complex ( 11 ). As for all compounds mentioned above, only two phosphorus atoms of the ligand coordinate to platinum, while two phosphorus atoms remain uncoordinated (proved by δ³¹P and characteristic values of ¹J(PPt)). NMR‐spectroscopic evidence was found for the existence of the cone conformation in the cis‐configuration of 11 .
